IN ACTION ROUND THE WORLD Herrenknecht Gripper technology
can be found in action in projects all around the world for all types of
tunnel use and all diameters.
RING ERECTOR installs steel arches to
stabilize the excavated tunnel.
BUCKETS transport the excavated
rock behind the cutterhead onto a belt
conveyor system.
CUTTERHEAD The excavation tools are mounted in
the cutterhead, which also supports the tunnel face.
GOTTHARD BASE TUNNEL
Installed power: 3,500 kW
Weight: around 220 t
SHIELD (partial shield) supports the rock
behind the cutterhead.
MESH INSTALLER places steel mats in the
inserted bolts.
DISC CUTTERS are mounted in the cutterhead
and roll in concentric circles over the tunnel face.
The rock is crushed by the contact pressure.
GOTTHARD BASE TUNNEL
Weight per disc cutter: around 125 kg
Contact pressure per disc cutter: up to 26 t
ROOF BOLTING UNIT can be moved around
the machines axis. Drills holes for the bolts
which stabilize the rock.
BELT CONVEYOR transports the excavated
material to the end of the back-up system.
WALKING DEVICE The rear of the TBM and the
back-up systems rest on the feet of the walking
device. They are lifted as tunnelling progresses,
and the back-up system follows.
GOTTHARD BASE TUNNEL
- Overall volume of excavated material:
around 10.5 million m.
THRUST CYLINDERS brace against the gripper
shoes and press the rotating cutterhead against
the tunnel face.
GOTTHARD BASE TUNNEL
Thrust force: 27,488 kN total
Stroke: max. 2 m
SHOTCRETE ROBOT lines the tunnel with
shotcrete to stabilize it.
CONTROL CABIN From here the TBM driver
operates the machine and monitors tunnelling.
